Lifecycle

Proctor is a A/B testing framework written in Java that enables data-driven product design at Indeed.

Proctor consists of data-model, client specification, client loader, matrix builder, java code generator.

Features:

  • consistent tests across multiple applications
  • group assignment adjustments without code deploys
  • rule-based group assignment: e.g. US users experience 50% A, 50% B and non-US users are 25% A, 25% B, 25% C, 25% D
  • human-readable test format
  • forcing of test groups for internal testing
  • java code generation for A/B tests groups

Installation

See Quick Start guide

Example

See proctor demo

Building documentation locally

$ git checkout gh-pages
$ gem install bundler
$ bundle install
$ rake clean serve
  => open http://localhost:4000/ in browser

Building

Need to use Java 11 SDK for using gradle:

List installed java JVMs on MacOS:

$ /usr/libexec/java_home -V

Example output:

Matching Java Virtual Machines (9):
    17.0.6 (arm64) "Azul Systems, Inc." - "Zulu 17.40.19" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk17.0.6.jdk/Contents/Home
    11.0.18 (arm64) "Azul Systems, Inc." - "Zulu 11.62.17" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk11.0.18.jdk/Contents/Home
    11.0.17 (arm64) "Azul Systems, Inc." - "Zulu 11.60.19" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk11.0.17.jdk/Contents/Home
    11.0.16 (arm64) "Azul Systems, Inc." - "Zulu 11.58.15" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk11.0.16_8.jdk/Contents/Home
    11.0.15 (arm64) "Azul Systems, Inc." - "Zulu 11.56.19" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk11.0.15_10.jdk/Contents/Home

    1.8.0_345 (arm64) "Azul Systems, Inc." - "Zulu 8.64.0.19" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_345.jdk/Contents/Home
    1.8.0_332 (arm64) "Azul Systems, Inc." - "Zulu 8.62.0.19" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_332.jdk/Contents/Home
    1.8.0_322 (arm64) "Azul Systems, Inc." - "Zulu 8.60.0.21" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_322.jdk/Contents/Home

Set JVM version in MacOS:

$ export JAVA_HOME=`/usr/libexec/java_home -v 11.0.18`

How to Build:

$ ./gradlew build

Local Install

Run the following gradle command and note the local version from the output:

$ ./gradlew clean check publish --refresh-dependencies 

Example output:

Calculating version to use for publish ...
Now using version: 0.local.20230711170543

> Task :proctor-common:compileJava

Example above would create local installation of proctor with version equal to 0.local.20230711170543
